Reminds me of that Office Space scene. If every single day has been worse than the day before, then every day is literally the worst day of your life.

Likewise, fascism is getting closer and closer to a reality in the US. Every election for the last 15 years at least has been more important than the last.

So, if anyone out there is influenced by the nihilism of the meme - no, nobody expects everything to get better all at once, or that this election is the one that makes "real change." But things can get a lot worse, and if you don't have the imagination to know why that makes voting the most important thing you do this year, then that's a very sad thing for all of us.
